These picks aren’t that great, obviously it’s entirely subjective but still

roadkillers182d ago

Control is $9. There's a lot of good games. It's just weird seeing games 5+ years old going on sale for $20. Back in the early 2000s, if a 5 year old game was on sale it would be under $5 at walmart.

Mr Logic182d ago

$11 in the year 2000 is $20 today adjusted for inflation.

FinalFantasyFanatic182d ago

Ever since the pandemic ended, I think developers are less willing to give good discounts, there's a few I've been waiting on good deals for, but 4 or 5 years later, they're not hitting below $50 (aussie dollars). Nintendo in particular are guilty of this, especially for their first party games.

SlothLordPootus179d ago

@FinalFantasyFanatic Nintendo is the worst with dropping game prices, quite possible the most anticonsumer practice in the industry. Activision is pretty bad too, though who knows if that will change now.

BrainSyphoned182d ago

Mostly a whole bunch of titles from the subscriptions of the world at not cheap prices.

DickyD1226182d ago (Edited 182d ago )

Literally read the title wrong and thought it was a list. That's what I get for trying to post articles first thing in the morning.

Amplitude182d ago

Rift Apart for 30 bucks is pretty good. Everything else here is either barely a discount or has been free on PS+

Angyobangyo182d ago

There are no free games on PS+, you're paying for a subscription service to play games.

MasterChief3624182d ago

@Angyobangyo
Yes, I think we all know this. No need to be pedantic.

Amplitude181d ago (Edited 181d ago )

@Angyobangyo
Honestly one of the sillier things people say. "Free on PS+" means if you have a PS+ subscription you get the game without any additional cost. VS Sales like "50% off with PS+"

(I don't pay for a single game subscription service btw. You can still call them "free on ___")

Duke19182d ago (Edited 182d ago )

I love browsing the PS store constantly, but the “sales” are pretty constantly shit imo. It’s always the same games on “discount”. I think better PS5 deals are found elsewhere for games.

Opening this list with Hogwarts Legacy at $47 tells you all you need to know

Can FSR 3 frame generation deliver the 120fps dream on PS5 and Xbox?

Frame generation technology has arrived on consoles, amplifying frame-rates and potentially transforming experiences.

adds between 8.3-15.3 milliseconds of latency on the game they tested, - no thanks

darksky2h ago

Base latency is 130.8ms and frame gen takes that up to 139.1ms. A 7% increase in latency is hardly a deal breaker.

Zenzuu2h ago

That's hardly a deal breaker and not really noticeable. Even the folks at Digital Foundry said so as well.

darthv7219h ago

Impressive results... sadly I don't have a 120hz display. I was thinking this technique could increase fps on any game that supports it regardless of the display.

purple10119h ago(Edited 19h ago)

I have a vrr telly in the lounge,

On another point, what if it were the other way around where the developer aims for higher fps, then used something like pssr to make the resolution higher, that might be better?

Any which way, PS5 pro sure looks interesting now, being they have already doubled frame rate, with JUST just this fsr3.0

sagapo45m ago

It’s up to dev’s to implement FSR 3 support tho but most probably will I guess (hope).

andy851h ago

Now I've extensively tried it I'm not too fussed about 120 fps. Give me a locked 60 and more details and I'm more than happy

i didnt even know there was a leak ha.

Profchaos3h ago

Wasn't a short detailed leak about 12 hours prior it was hey there's going to be a astro bot a VR game and a few other things specified but massively underwhelming leak tbh

Profchaos3h ago

For this state of play not at all

Relientk7721h ago

This is news to me. I had no idea the games from the State of Play got leaked.

Jin_Sakai13h ago

I seen the list posted and instantly got excited for Astro Bot. Everything else was meh.

CrimsonWing6914h ago

I’m pretty sure leaks or not, by the end of the show people will still be disappointed. The only highlight for me was MH: Wilds… everything else was mid to forgettable. Hope them HaaS games you got lined up really work out for you, Sony. Everyone asking for Bloodborne Remake, Wolverine, and, uh, well other games like that could’ve made this epic. Instead we get Concord, some derivative Souls-like games, that were fine looking, and a Silent Hill 2 Remake with horrible character designs and janky combat animations… great.

rayford1513h ago

I wasn’t disappointed it was a solid B

TOTSUKO11h ago

For a State of play it was actually alright. People are overshadowing it because they want to cancel Sony to high hell for Gaas which is not fair for the other devs who revealed great looking games that were just shown. I get it you don’t like gaas don’t buy it. If it sells well good for the people who had interest no big deal? If you are a PlayStation fan what’s wrong with PlayStation trying to cater every gamer? I don’t understand that smh

ravens5212h ago

Where Winds Meet and Ballad of Antara both looked good. Not to mention Astro Bot. It was a decent show. For me personally it was a 7. I'm sure to some people it was actually really good cause they'd play all those games. 🤷🏽 Personal taste

MrNinosan11h ago

I wasn't dissapointed.
And no, everyone doesn't want a Bloodborne Remake. There is probably very few who's actually asking for it, but the ones who do are loud on internet.

CrimsonWing6911h ago(Edited 11h ago)

Oh, my mistake. It’s definitely not one of the most requested games when it comes to remakes with news stories talking about it 🙄

https://comicbook.com/gamin...

https://www.gamingbible.com...

https://www.yahoo.com/tech/...

https://gamerant.com/fromso...

Silly me. It’s just a very few that are actually wanting it…

MrNinosan4h ago

@CrimsonWings69
And you just proved what I wrote.

If Bloodborne was remestered or remade, it would still sell less than Final Fantasy XVI or VII Rebirth, probably be called a great succes from it's core fans, but most wouldn't care.

I love Bloodborne, I want a new release of it, but it's niche and has sold crap compared to most of Playstation Studios bigger titles.

Astro Bot will sell and mean more to Playstation than a Bloodborne Remake.
